any feedback I can find for the Asai AS?

Seems like I have narrowed down what I want, and I think the santoku is what I am lloking for, the Asai in AS seems to have all of the little pluses for a good price range, wa handle, damascus, tsuchime (sp?)

EE seems to have a good price, and it jumps up considerably getting into slightly larger blades.
